In the present specification and drawings, elements having substantially the same function and configuration are denoted by the same reference numerals, and redundant description is omitted, and elements not directly related to the present invention are not illustrated. To do.

  The continuous heating furnace of the first embodiment is provided with a plurality of hermetic gas heater systems in the furnace. Here, first, the sealed gas heater system will be described, and then the configuration of the continuous heating furnace will be described.

(First Embodiment: Sealed Gas Heater System 100)
FIG. 1 is an external perspective view showing an external appearance example of a hermetic gas heater system 100 in the first embodiment. The hermetic gas heater system 100 in the present embodiment is a premixed type in which city gas or the like and air as a combustion oxidant gas are mixed before being supplied to the main body container. A so-called diffusion type that performs diffusion combustion may be used.

  As shown in FIG. 1, a hermetic gas heater system 100 includes a plurality of (here, two) hermetic gas heaters 110 connected in series, and is a mixed gas of city gas or the like (hereinafter referred to as “fuel gas”). ) And the fuel gas burns in each of the sealed gas heaters 110 to be heated. In the closed gas heater system 100, exhaust gas generated by the combustion is recovered.

  FIG. 2 is an assembly diagram for explaining the structure of the hermetic gas heater system 100 according to the first embodiment. As shown in FIG. 2, the hermetic gas heater system 100 includes an arrangement plate 120, an outer peripheral wall 122, a partition plate 124, and a heating plate 126.

  The arrangement plate 120 is a thin plate member formed of a material having high heat resistance and oxidation resistance, for example, stainless steel (SUS: Stainless Used Steel).

  The outer peripheral wall 122 is composed of a thin plate member having an outer shape in which the outer peripheral surface is flush with the arrangement plate 120, and is laminated on the arrangement plate 120 as illustrated. The outer peripheral wall 122 has a track shape (a shape formed by two substantially parallel line segments and two arcs (semicircles) connecting the two line segments), and the thickness direction (the outer peripheral wall 122). And two through holes 122a penetrating in the stacking direction of the arrangement plate 120).

  Similar to the arrangement plate 120, the partition plate 124 is formed of a material having high heat resistance and oxidation resistance, such as stainless steel, or a material having high heat conductivity, such as brass. The partition plate 124 is formed of a thin plate member having an outer shape along the inner peripheral surface of the through hole 122 a of the outer peripheral wall 122, and is disposed substantially parallel to the arrangement plate 120 inside the outer peripheral wall 122. In addition, the partition plate 124 maintains the dimensional relationship in which the outer peripheral surface is spaced apart from the inner peripheral surface of the through hole 122a at a constant interval while being accommodated in the through hole 122a of the outer peripheral wall 122.

  The heating plate 126 is made of a thin plate member formed of a material having high heat resistance and oxidation resistance, for example, stainless steel or a material having high thermal conductivity, for example, brass, like the arrangement plate 120. The heating plate 126 is provided with a concavo-convex portion 126a in which concavo-convex portions are formed. With such a configuration, the unevenness portion 126a absorbs the difference in the amount of thermal expansion due to the temperature difference between the heating plate 126 and the arrangement plate 120 and the difference between the materials of the heating plate 126 and the arrangement plate 120, and the coupling portion with the outer peripheral wall 122, etc. Therefore, thermal fatigue and high temperature creep due to repeated heating and cooling can be suppressed. Moreover, since the area of the radiation surface described later of the heating plate 126 is increased, the radiation intensity can be increased.

  Moreover, the arrangement | positioning board 120, the partition plate 124, and the heating plate 126 may incline and arrange | position so long as a space | gap is formed among them. In addition, the arrangement plate 120, the partition plate 124, and the heating plate 126 are not limited in thickness, and the arrangement plate 120 and the partition plate 124 may be formed to be uneven.

  The heating plate 126 has an outer shape in which the outer peripheral surface is flush with the arrangement plate 120 and the outer peripheral wall 122, and is laminated on the outer peripheral wall 122 and the partition plate 124. At this time, the heating plate 126 and the arrangement plate 120 are arranged substantially parallel to each other (substantially parallel for causing excess enthalpy combustion in the present embodiment).

  As described above, the main body container of the hermetic gas heater system 100 is formed by closing the upper and lower sides of the outer peripheral wall 122 with the heating plate 126 and the arrangement plate 120, and the upper and lower wall surfaces from the area of the outer peripheral surface (the outer surface of the outer peripheral wall 122) The area of the outer surface of the heating plate 126 and the arrangement plate 120 is larger. That is, the upper and lower wall surfaces occupy most of the outer surface of the main body container.

  The hermetic gas heater system 100 includes two hermetic gas heaters 110 connected to each other. A connection space between the two hermetic gas heaters 110 is connected to a hermetic space in the hermetic gas heater 110 that is continuously provided. The fire transfer part 128 which connects is formed. However, even if it is a sealed space, it is not always necessary to completely seal it when used in a gas. In the sealed gas heater system 100 of the present embodiment, for example, a single flame is ignited by an ignition device such as an igniter (not shown), and the flame is spread and ignited in the sealed gas heater 110 provided continuously through the fire transfer section 128. . As described above, the two sealed gas heaters 110 are provided in the sealed gas heater system 100. Since the two sealed gas heaters 110 have the same configuration, only one sealed gas heater 110 will be described below.

  3 is a cross-sectional view taken along line III-III in FIG. As shown in FIG. 3A, the arrangement plate 120 is provided with an inflow hole 132 penetrating in the thickness direction at the center of the hermetic gas heater 110. The inflow hole 132 is connected to the first piping portion 130 through which the fuel gas flows, and the fuel gas is guided into the hermetic gas heater 110 through the inflow hole 132.

  In the main body container, the introduction part 134 and the lead-out part 138 are formed so as to overlap each other in the thickness direction (a direction orthogonal to the facing surfaces of the arrangement plate 120 and the heating plate 126).

  The introduction part 134 is a space sandwiched between the arrangement plate 120 and the partition plate 124, is continuously arranged in the combustion chamber 136, and guides the fuel gas flowing in from the inflow hole 132 to the combustion chamber 136 radially.

  The combustion chamber 136 is arranged in a space surrounded by the outer peripheral wall 122, the heating plate 126, and the arrangement plate 120. The combustion chamber 136 faces the outer peripheral end of the partition plate 124 and is formed along the outer peripheral wall 122. In the combustion chamber 136, the fuel gas that has flowed from the inflow hole 132 through the introduction portion 134 burns. Thus, the structure which forms the combustion chamber 136 along the outer peripheral wall 122 can ensure the volume of the combustion chamber 136 sufficiently, and can reduce a combustion load factor compared with a Swiss roll type. An ignition device (not shown) is provided at an arbitrary position of the combustion chamber 136.

  The lead-out portion 138 is a space sandwiched between the heating plate 126 and the partition plate 124, and is continuously arranged in the combustion chamber 136. The exhaust gas generated by the combustion in the combustion chamber 136 is sent to the central portion of the hermetic gas heater 110. Summarize.

  Further, in the main body container, the introduction part 134 and the lead-out part 138 are formed so as to overlap in the thickness direction, so that the heat of the exhaust gas can be transmitted to the fuel gas through the partition plate 124 and the fuel gas can be preheated. it can.

  The radiation surface 140 is an outer surface of the heating plate 126, and is heated by exhaust gas flowing through the outlet portion 138 or combustion in the combustion chamber 136, and transfers radiant heat to the object to be fired.

  The partition plate 124 is provided with an exhaust hole 142 penetrating in the thickness direction at the center of the hermetic gas heater 110. The exhaust hole 142 is fitted with a second piping part 144 at the inner peripheral portion, and the exhaust gas after heating the radiation surface 140 is exhausted outside the hermetic gas heater 110 through the exhaust hole 142. The

  The second piping part 144 is arranged inside the first piping part 130. That is, the first pipe part 130 and the second pipe part 144 form a double pipe. The second piping part 144 also plays a role of transferring the heat of the exhaust gas to the fuel gas flowing through the first piping part 130.

  Here, the arrangement plate 120 is fixed to the end of the first piping unit 130, and the partition plate 124 is fixed to the end of the second piping unit 144 protruding from the first piping unit 130, The arrangement plate 120 and the partition plate 124 are separated from each other by the difference between the end portion and the end portion of the second piping portion 144.

  In the present embodiment, the second piping part 144 is arranged inside the first piping part 130, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the first piping part 130 and the second piping part 144 are connected to the heating plate 126 side. The first piping unit 130 may be disposed inside the second piping unit 144 by being inserted into the introduction unit 134 and the leading unit 138 from the first piping unit.

  Next, the flow of fuel gas and exhaust gas will be specifically described. In FIG. 3 (b) in which the circle of FIG. 3 (a) is enlarged, the white arrow indicates the flow of fuel gas, the gray arrow indicates the exhaust gas flow, and the black arrow indicates heat transfer. Show. If fuel gas is supplied to the 1st piping part 130, fuel gas will flow in into the introducing | transducing part 134 from the inflow hole 132, and will flow toward the combustion chamber 136, spreading radially. Then, the fuel gas collides with the outer peripheral wall 122 in the combustion chamber 136 to decrease the flow velocity, burns with the ignited flame, and becomes high-temperature exhaust gas. The exhaust gas flows through the outlet 138 and flows through the heating plate 126. After transferring heat to the radiation surface 140, the heat is discharged from the second piping part 144 to the exhaust heat transfer part described later through the exhaust hole 142.

  The partition plate 124 is formed of a material that is relatively easy to conduct heat, and the heat of the exhaust gas that passes through the outlet portion 138 is transmitted to the fuel gas that passes through the introduction portion 134 via the partition plate 124. Here, the exhaust gas flowing through the lead-out portion 138 and the fuel gas flowing through the introduction portion 134 form a counter flow (counter flow) with the partition plate 124 interposed therebetween, so that the fuel gas is efficiently removed by the heat of the exhaust gas. Preheating is possible, and high thermal efficiency can be obtained. By so-called excess enthalpy combustion, in which fuel gas is preheated in this way, combustion of fuel gas can be stabilized and the concentration of CO (carbon monoxide) generated by incomplete combustion can be suppressed to an extremely low concentration. .

  Furthermore, a protrusion 150 is provided at the boundary between the introduction part 134 and the combustion chamber 136 to prevent backfire. The protrusion 150 is for preventing the flame from passing through the introduction portion 134 (the combustion reaction is not propagated toward the introduction portion 134). The protrusion 150 will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram for explaining the plurality of protrusions 150. 4A is a perspective view of the hermetic gas heater system 100 excluding the heating plate 126, and FIG. 4B is a cross-sectional view taken along line IV (b) -IV (b) in FIG. 4A. It is explanatory drawing seen from the direction. In FIG. 4B, in order to facilitate understanding of the structure of the plurality of protrusions 150, the heating plate 126 and a portion of the protrusion 150 hidden by the partition plate 124 are indicated by broken lines. An arrow 152 indicates the direction of fuel gas flow. The introduction section 134 has a channel cross-section narrowed by a plurality of protrusions 150 provided on the partition plate 124. The fuel gas flows into the combustion chamber 136 through the gap between the adjacent protrusions 150 as shown in the partial enlarged view of FIG. 3B and the explanatory view of FIG. It will be.

  As described above, according to the sealed gas heater system 100 of the present embodiment, the fuel gas is preheated with the heat of the exhaust gas, so that high thermal efficiency is obtained and the exhaust gas is not diffused. The heat of the exhaust gas can be used effectively.

  Next, a continuous heating furnace 200 in which a plurality of the above-described sealed gas heater systems 100 are arranged will be described.

  FIG. 5 is an explanatory diagram for explaining the outline of the continuous heating furnace 200 in the first embodiment. 5A is a top view of the continuous heating furnace 200, and FIG. 5B is a cross-sectional view taken along line V (b) -V (b) of FIG. 5A.

  The transport body 210 is composed of, for example, a transport belt such as a belt, and is stretched and supported by a roller 214. The transport body 210 is rotated by a gear 210a that receives the power of a motor (not shown), and transports an object to be fired. Although this to-be-fired thing shall be mounted on the conveyance body 210, it may be suspended by the suspension mechanism (not shown) provided in the conveyance body 210, for example. Moreover, in this embodiment, the space in which the to-be-baked material is arranged in the furnace main body 212, and passes at the time of conveyance is made into the object space 212a.

  The furnace body 212 surrounds part or all of the transport body 210 to form a firing space. That is, the furnace body 212 also surrounds the target space 212a.

  The roller 214 supports a part of the transport body 210 from the vertically lower side in the furnace body 212. Note that in order to suppress warpage of the object to be fired, in a case where the transport body is configured by a pair of nets sandwiching the upper and lower sides of the object to be fired, a roller 214 may be provided outside the pair of nets.

  A plurality of sealed gas heater systems 100 are arranged in the furnace body 212. In the present embodiment, a plurality of hermetic gas heater systems 100 are arranged in the furnace body 212, vertically above and below the carrier 210, respectively.

  FIG. 6 is an explanatory diagram for explaining heat exchange of the rollers 214 in the first embodiment. FIG. 6A shows a cross-sectional view taken along line VI (a) -VI (a) of FIG. Here, in order to facilitate understanding, description of a heat insulating wall and a heat insulating tube which will be described later is omitted. In the following drawings, the exhaust gas flow path (the space in which the exhaust gas flows) is shown in black, and the hermetic gas heater system 100 is shown in cross hatching.

  As shown in FIG. 6 (a), the end of the roller 214 passes through the wall surface of the furnace body 212 and is exposed to the outside of the furnace body 212, and can be freely rotated by a bearing 214a provided in the through portion of the wall surface. Supported.

  The exhaust pipe 216 communicates with the second piping part 144 of the hermetic gas heater system 100 to guide exhaust gas. Here, the pipe extending from the hermetic gas heater system 100 is a second pipe part 144 up to a part where the pipe is bent, and a pipe to which a plurality of second pipe parts 144 downstream from the bent part is connected is an exhaust pipe. 216.

  The exhaust pipe 216 is configured to exchange heat between the exhaust gas flowing through the exhaust pipe 216 and the roller 214. Specifically, the roller 214 is configured to be hollow as shown in FIG. 6A, and the exhaust pipe 216 is connected to the end of the roller 214 outside the furnace body 212, and exhaust gas flowing through the exhaust pipe 216. Is guided into the roller 214.

  With the configuration in which the exhaust gas is circulated inside the roller 214, the entire roller 214 can be warmed, the heat absorption in the furnace body 212 is suppressed at any position of the roller 214, and the outside of the furnace body 212 through the roller 214 is suppressed. Heat dissipation can be suppressed, and the temperature drop in the furnace body 212 can be suppressed.

  The roller 214 includes, for example, a shaft core and a cylindrical rotating body through which the shaft core passes, and the rotating body is rotatably supported with respect to the shaft core fixed to the furnace body 212. It is good. In this case, the structure can be simplified by making the shaft core hollow and guiding the exhaust gas flowing through the exhaust pipe 216 to the inside of the shaft core.

  Further, the exhaust pipe 216 is configured to be capable of exchanging heat with a portion of the roller 214 that protrudes in a direction perpendicular to the conveyance direction of the object to be baked in the furnace body 212 in the furnace body 212. Also good. In the example shown in FIG. 6B, the exhaust pipe 216 is one of the portions protruding in the direction perpendicular to the conveyance direction of the object to be fired from the conveyance body 210 so that heat exchange with the roller 214 is possible. It wraps around and touches the part and extends vertically upward.

  As described above, the structure of heating the portion of the roller 214 that protrudes from the transport body 210 and is separated from the hermetic gas heater system 100 with the heat of the exhaust gas can simplify the mechanism for suppressing the temperature drop of the roller 214 in the vicinity of the target space 212a. This can be realized by the configuration, and the manufacturing cost can be suppressed.

  As described above, in the continuous heating furnace 200 of the present embodiment, since the closed gas heater system 100 has a sealed structure, the exhaust gas is not diffused and is led to the exhaust pipe 216 at a high temperature. Is higher than the temperature of the roller 214, and the roller 214 is reliably warmed. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the temperature drop of the roller 214 in the vicinity of the object to be fired. Furthermore, the continuous heating furnace 200 uses the exhaust heat of the exhaust gas for heat exchange with the roller 214 and does not require a new heat source, so that the thermal efficiency of the entire heat treatment is not reduced.

  In the present embodiment, the configuration in which the end of the roller 214 is exposed to the outside of the furnace body 212 has been described as an example, but the entire roller 214 may be accommodated in the furnace body 212. Even in this case, the roller 214 is warmed by exchanging heat between the exhaust gas flowing through the exhaust pipe 216 and the roller 214. Therefore, it is possible to suppress a temperature drop in the vicinity of the target space 212a caused by heat transfer from the vicinity of the target space 212a of the roller 214 to a portion away from the sealed gas heater system 100.

  If the exhaust gas may be diffused in the furnace body 212 or outside the furnace body 212, the exhaust gas flowing through the exhaust pipe 216 may be blown directly onto the roller 214. In any case, if heat exchange is possible between the exhaust gas guided to the exhaust pipe 216 and the roller 214, a reduction in the thermal efficiency of the entire heat treatment can be suppressed without requiring a new heat source. it can.

  Next, a heat insulating wall, a heat insulating tube, a heat insulating plate, and a heat insulating layer that can be used to keep the inside of the furnace body 212 warm will be described with reference to FIGS. In the subsequent drawings, the description of the exhaust pipe 216 described above is omitted for easy understanding.

  FIG. 7 is an explanatory diagram for explaining the heat insulating wall 218 and the heat insulating tube 222a in the first embodiment. 7A shows a cross-sectional view taken along line VII (a) -VII (a) in FIG. 5B, and FIG. 7B shows an enlarged view of the rectangular portion 224 in FIG. 5B. Show.

  As shown in FIGS. 7A and 7B, a heat retaining wall 218 is disposed at the end of the continuous heating furnace 200 in the transport direction, leaving a gap necessary for transporting the object to be fired. The inside of the heat retaining wall 218 is hollow, and exhaust gas discharged from the closed type gas heater system 100 (closest to the heat retaining wall 218) on the end side is guided through the communication pipe 220a. Further, the upper and lower heat retaining walls 218 communicate with each other via the communication pipe 220b. 7A and 7B show the rear end portion in the transport direction, the same configuration is used in the front end portion in the transport direction.

  FIG. 8 is a sectional view taken along line VIII-VIII in FIG. A heat insulating tube 222a shown in FIGS. 7B and 8 is a tube into which exhaust gas exhausted from the hermetic gas heater system 100 is guided. The heat insulation pipe 222a communicates with the second piping part 144 and goes around the outside of the hermetic gas heater system 100 as shown in FIG. As shown in FIGS. 7B and 8, the heat insulating tube 222a extends in the transport direction along the side surface parallel to the transport direction of the target space 212a and parallel to the vertical direction, and is folded back.

  Moreover, the heat insulation part 230 shown in FIG.7 (b) has heat insulation, and surrounds a part or all of the radiation space 212b and the heat insulation pipe | tube 222a. As shown in FIG. 8, the radiation space 212b is formed between an object to be fired (not shown) disposed in the target space 212a and the hermetic gas heater system 100 disposed vertically above and below. A space for transferring radiant heat to an object to be fired.

  With the configuration including the heat insulating portion 230, the continuous heating furnace 200 can suppress heat radiation from the wall surface of the furnace body 212 and improve thermal efficiency.

  As described above, in the continuous heating furnace 200, the plurality of sealed gas heater systems 100 are disposed to face each other with the target space 212a interposed therebetween, and the heat insulating tubes 222a are disposed to face each other in a direction orthogonal to the facing direction of the sealed gas heater system 100. The radiation space 212b is surrounded by the hermetic gas heater system 100 and the heat insulating tube 222a.

  With such a configuration, the continuous heating furnace 200 radiates and heats the object to be fired with the sealed gas heater system 100 while keeping the temperature of the portion where the sealed gas heater system 100 is not disposed with the heat retaining pipe 222a. It becomes possible to suppress the temperature drop of 212a.

  As described above, in the continuous heating furnace 200 of the first embodiment, since the hermetic gas heater system 100 has a hermetic structure, the exhaust gas does not diffuse into the furnace or the like and remains in the heat retaining wall 218 and the heat retaining pipe 222a at a high temperature. Led. The continuous heating furnace 200 is disposed in the furnace main body 212 by arranging the heat insulating tube 222a between the target space 212a and the wall surface of the furnace main body 212 or in a portion having a relatively low temperature in the furnace main body 212. The temperature distribution is made uniform. Further, since exhaust heat of exhaust gas is used and a new heat source is unnecessary, the thermal efficiency of the entire heat treatment is not reduced.

(Second Embodiment)
Next, the heat insulating tubes 222b and 222c in the second embodiment will be described. In the second embodiment, since only the heat retaining tubes 222b and 222c are different from the first embodiment, the description of the same configuration as the first embodiment is omitted here, and the heat retaining tubes 222b and 222c having different configurations are omitted here. Only will be described.

  FIG. 9 is an explanatory diagram for explaining the heat insulating tubes 222b and 222c in the second embodiment. 9A shows a cross-sectional view at the same position as FIG. 7A, and FIG. 9B shows an enlarged view at the same position as FIG. 7B. However, in order to facilitate understanding of the position of the heat insulating tube 222b, in FIG. 9A, the heat insulating tube 222b originally hidden with a broken line is covered with black, which is hidden inside the furnace body 212 (back side) of the wall surface 212c. In FIG. 9B, the description of the roller 214 is omitted.
